uPVC repair in North Prospect, done in place

The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We work on conservatory frames, doors & door panels and white uPVC, and people most often call us about burns on sills and chips and dents.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Plymouth. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlords, agents and businesses in North Prospect

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in North Prospect

  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Doors & door panels
  • White uPVC
  • Window frames & sills
  • Conservatory frames

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our prices page.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
